I don't want to scare anyone but today I was in the worst pain of my life, it was worse than when I was in labor with my son :( I think it was the dry heaves that hurt me the most. All day long, nothing but pain. My poor husband, I was so mean to him. BUT something good happened... I told them the morphine wasn't working and they got me an order for Fentanyl and Toradol and I am feeling wonderful! It's after midnight right now and I finally felt well enough to get up and walk around the unit 4 times!! Oh and here's something I found odd - my surgeon gave me 2 pictures of my new stomach.

So tomorrow is my big day ( I have to be there by 5 AM' date=' surgery is scheduled for 7:30) and to put it mildly : I'm scared!! I can't even think about it or I start to cry. Is this even remotely normal?? Shouldn't I be jumping for joy? Oh my, it's going to be a long night...[/quote']

As my surgeon told me yesterday if I'm not worry or scar he be worried. So you doing good. Congrats on your special day. Keep us post.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
